I want to expand on this more as someone more familiar with Bangalore/Bengaluru. Almost like clockwork, Blume Ventures releases a report every year about the state of the Indian startup ecosystem that year, and since Bengaluru startups

Is it that hard to find? This[1] took me one search on YouTube. I agree that India is filthy, but it's not hard to find such videos for China either. [1] - https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hEJKOD1ux14

"The Ugly Indian" [1] (a ragtag group of anonymous citizens) usually does that in India. In reality, though, these kinds of issues are only really seen as a minor inconvenience at most. Anecdotally, most middle-class people in her

I'm Indian. We also learned that Carbon dating was a thing somewhere between Middle School and High School. I also believe that the reference to isotopes was hyperbolic and that he actually wanted to talk about the fact that we teach t

I interpreted it as knowing the basics of nuclear physics in order to do a CS Bachelor's degree, which is what the entrance exam for these colleges ask.

From what I see running the test on my phone, there's an option to tunnel DNS through Rethink here, which you can change to the VPN's DNS. Everything else is tunneled by default through wireguard. Maybe there's a configuratio

Not really on topic, but is there any plan on integrating tailscale with it? There's a userspace mode for tailscale that exposes a socks proxy, but you currently have to spawn that with Termux or another terminal, then forward your tra

I didn't intend for this to be propaganda, I don't even use it anymore since I'm on grapheneOS now. But I have tried all three. I need to use a VPN in split mode for certain apps, and since using Tor with apps wasn't par

There's RethinkDNS [1](not affiliated to them, just like their software). Sometimes it gets killed on my phone, but otherwise it's a great replacement, adds some much-needed features like proxies and wireguard VPNs on top of a DNS

There's no need to dream about it, it already exists: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.celzero.bravedns/ I used to use it when I wasn't on grapheneOS and needed to block internet access.

Newpipe takes care of this pretty well. You can select what it calls "Channel groups", which would be a feed of a subset of your subscriptions.

I tried the same route, but got the logs correctly. It gave me a HTTP 410 error. I wouldn't be surprised at all if VLC's youtube plugin is just too old and there's a better one somewhere else. But in the meanwhile, mpv's

You should be able to do this with radio-browser.info [1]. Specifically, look at the documentation that lists all stations. [1] - https://de1.api.radio-browser.info/#General

I like how flexible matrix bots are but there are some problems that I'm not able to easily solve, like finding out when a new person joins a matrix room because the m.join event is used for user info changes as well as joins. Edit: I

More importantly, it is indexable by search engines (if you use view.matrix.org). But it's not as simple to use as discord quite yet. I say this as a self-hosted matrix user, but it's not quite as simple to call someone else (unti

Not the OP, but the beeper client looks better and has native GIF support, among other niceties that more "normal" users would prefer over other clients.

Isn't mautrix/signal supposed to work on the cloud? Or is there some work that has been done to make it work on the phone?

Used to be that way, they decided to give it out for free for the time being. [1] [1] - https://blog.beeper.com/p/beeper-is-now-free

This [1] makes me think gobpf uses C bindings to bcc, so golang does not compile to eBPF, bcc does. [1] - https://github.com/iovisor/gobpf/tree/master/bcc

I definitely feel a large German presence as a very active Matrix user, but Hetzner and Contabo are also some of the cheapest providers, so it just makes more logical sense to use their VPSes and bare metal servers.

by thatloststudent 3y ago
I don't think it has anything to do with Germans or French people. Hetzner, Contabo and OVH are just popular (and cheap) providers to host bare metal instances, and they're not big tech. Those two reasons are probably why we'

This is what I assumed as a non-native speaker. He didn't really care about the word "Oriental", rather about the way he seemingly justifies punching people presumably beneath him.

I currently live in South India, and the lowest number I can fathom from this estimate of yours ($125 30 12 = $45000) is an pretty high salary that people in the level of Director get. If you're in places flush with VC funding, you _mi

Interesting that you rank some state boards as better than CBSE. Where I'm from (Karnataka), the state board textbooks felt like they weren't nearly as rigorous or interesting as the CBSE equivalents. Any particular state boards t

It would be good to let android users and desktop users (even if only through changing user-agents) to browse the website. Even if I emulate the user-agent of an iPhone, it needs me to run it from the homescreen.
